Review:

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

Snowed in for Christmas is a collection of 3 short stories by Noelle Adams, Zoe York, and Samantha Chase. Each story is brand new and it belongs in a different series, but they can be read as stand-alone. I only wished for a little more information on the characters and the background in the story "Love on the Edge of Reason". I felt like this novella was only a part of their story and I think that is because Tom is trying to win Chloe back after he messed things up. Love on the Edge of Reason was my least favorite story in the book, but it was a medium one and not very bad.

A Christmas Rescue by Samantha Chase is the most complicated story when it comes to the main characters. The hero, Gavin, is a complex character and he didn't have a happy past. He has his reasons for not wanting to decorate his clinic but the heroine doesn't know it which leads them to have an argument and later get stranded in his house/clinic where they get to know each other better. Gavin is the character who gets the most detailed background and development and to be honest he is the one who needs it. Their story was good and I liked equally both characters. I wanted to see more of them and I will try to follow the series. Samantha Chase is one of my favorite authors and I always enjoy her writing. To be fair, I didn't begin the story knowing that I will like it, I was just reading the next story in the book ( I don't think I even noticed the author's name) and I found myself enjoying it a lot and getting invested in these characters. The mentions of animals were always a plus, but I stayed for the grumpy vet and the woman who was going to change his life. 

Stranded in the Snow by Noelle Adams is the first story in this book and for some reason the last I chose to review. In this story, we have Scott and Olivia. Their fathers had some feud in the past and that lead to some hate between the two families. Most of that was mended in the first book I guess, but Scott didn't react so well when Olivia came bearing an olive branch and since then their relationship was so bad one could call them enemies. Thinking about my feelings when it came to this book made me realize that I only think of one word. Miscommunication. Scott and Olivia could have had their happy ending long before they got it if they had said something. Both of them were good characters and I liked them. Scott admits that he is the wrong party here and I liked that about him. He was honest and there was 0 drama. I wanted some angst and I have come to expect some from Noelle Adams. It was a sweet story.
